APIs are everywhere, and they’re not new to many enterprises or industries. What is new is a growing recognition that APIs are the foundation upon which digital businesses are built; they’ve become critical to how many enterprises interact with their customers, partners, and employees. They’re far more than a technical solution—APIs solve business problems.

With the expanding view of the necessity of APIs, there’s also a growing need for a sophisticated way to manage them. After all, with the explosion of apps and experiences required in the digital world, and new customer-centric IT organizations, companies across industries need better solutions than ever to manage their APIs and API-driven businesses.

How do you ensure that developers and partners are productive? How do you manage, secure, and mediate your API traffic? How do you grow your API program to meet increasing demand?

These questions are resolved with basic API management solutions.

But that’s not enough. Advanced API management platforms are differentiated by additional capabilities, including Backend as a Service (BaaS) to enable developers to develop and extend apps with modern features, an analytics engine to provide deep insights into the APIs, and even monetization features.

The new eBook, “The Definitive Guide to API Management,” examines all the features of this key platform for digital business, from designing and publishing APIs for developers to API traffic management, security, and analytics. It also covers the elements of more sophisticated solutions, including BaaS, analytics, and monetization.
